Mexican Fiesta

Since we’re having all the kids over Saturday as a treat for Danny’s sibling I wanted to do something with Ann and Matt. I invited them over to dinner Sunday but she wasn’t sure her schedule would allow for a dinner date, thankfully it did. My favorite chicken enchilada casserole was already on the menu but I needed dessert. I wanted to stick to a Mexican theme and found a recipe for flan. I’d never had flan before so it was a risk. Thankfully, one that totally paid off. Matt and Ann loved it!!! I was so glad; however, since I was nervous it wouldn’t turn out I also made chocolate lava cakes. An equally successful choice that Ann especially loved.

After dinner we chatted for a while and played some Mortal Komat on Sega. It was a really nice night and made me all the more thankful to have space to entertain company.
